It doesn't say anything about commentaries for all episodes. I just saw an updated page about this release and nothing has been changed. I really hope we aren't cheated with this release. I may just wait until all the other seasons are released just to make sure.

So Next year will see the release of seasons 20 & 13 Do you have a source for that? I didn't hear any release schedule yet.

Firstly I haven't bought the 12th Season yet, want to purchase the Comic Book guy head. I know its a silly gimmick but I have to because I got the previous ones. I will probably get this release on Blu, but I hope they don't release the previous sets on BD. I don't think I could reason spending anymore cash on Simpsons boxsets, the dvd sets were pricey enough.

The release plan for the simpsons is that they will release 2 seasons a year like they have for the past few years but one season will be the last aired season and the other will be the next season in the dvd line. So Next year will see the release of seasons 20 & 13, The following year will have seasons 21 & 14 and so on. Hope this clears some stuff up for some folk.

admin, i didn't post links for crying out loud! no reason to edit my message. and i stand by what i said. ok, is THIS better? FOX SUCKS ASS FOR SKIPPING SEASONS TO RELEASE SEASON 20. there, better? my message didn't post links or encourage "illegal activities". cheers.

Fox sucks!

Well, next year is less than two months away, so I guess that is a good thing. I figured it would be "next year" before we saw anymore seasons anyway.

But i still feel really cheated because i did not want stupid season 20 on Blu Ray, i cant believe anyone would, i wanted season 13 which im now gonna have to wait even longer for... Possibly until next year! Bummer.

i'm pretty sure they're gonna go back and release season 13 and up after this....they're only releasing this one right away because its HD but also cuz of the anniversary.

Thats why they should stop with the show. It's not really getting any better.

Incorrect, The Simpsons might not be as great but there have been a few excellent episodes and lately this season has been pretty funny. It's still superior to shows like Family Guy.

Day one for me. Blu-ray + The Simpsons= Heaven. I am a Simpson fan, but this idea is just stupid. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'll stick purchase this, but jumping from 8 seasons? Really? I'm also flabbergasted at the lack of extras. Only a Featurette? And for $60? This doesn't sound too good.

realized this, but still, kind of annoying just because of fox's timely simpsons releases. can look forward to getting season 19 in 3 to 4 years.

oh totally, its still annoying i agree. but yeah at the rate they release these, it'll be a while. i mean had they kept a regular reasonable schedual, we should easily be at season 15 or higher by now.

Why this c**p?! I made a wow to only buy up to season 15 which was the last good season so WTF and also the 20 anniversary thing was in 2007!

I thought the same myself with the skipping of seasons and all. Besides when they changed the whole intro for the cross over to HD all i could think was O_O

people do realize one of the reasons they're releasing this season over the older ones is because it features the first HD episodes right? Had the show not gone HD yet, they'd just be releasing season 13.

its the 20th anniversary of the tv series, not their first appearance ever. the show premiered in december 1989 with the christmas episode, hence 2009 being the 20th anniverary.
